OH, MOTHER
Oh, Mother, Oh, Mother,
Come quickly and see,
The house and the farmyard
Have gone on a spree.
The pig’s in the pantry,
The chickens are out,
The parrot is perched
On the tea kettle spout.
And mercy, Oh, mercy,
Oh, what shall I do?
A rat has run off
With my very best shoe.
CELLA REE AND TOMMY TO
Two funny friends that you all know
Are Cella Ree and Tommy To.
About as queer as friends can be,
Are Tommy To and Cella Ree.
For hours they sit there grim and stable
Side by side upon the table.
Tom is red and Cella pale,
His blushes are of no avail;
She sits, in spite of his endeavor,
As firm and undisturbed as ever,
A funny pair, you must agree,
This Tommy To and Cella Ree.
